Man you guys are a tuff crowd. So it might not have been the best solution but common lets be honest it is gonna help ALOT in vegas . And as far as turbo lag with the stock turbo I have not heard that about the AMS just the NEISEI

Give it some laughing gas. Cools the intake charge and is oxygen bearing. Helps over to come a bad DA. That's why a lot of the NO2 cars don't fall off as much in the heat.

Invest in a C02 sprayer, or a huge dry ice pack

Everyone is correct but what I will add is that my car pulls like a bat out of hell in the 93 degree weather plus extreme humidity in VA. It feels like the stocker did at 70 degrees ambient. I have the buschur race FMIC and it feels damn good.

At a track with 93 degree ambient will it still heatsoak? Hell yeah, but I may be able to squeeze a couple more laps out of the car before it starts pulling rediculous amounts of timing to calm the detonation gremlins.

It should also help a ton once I get my AMS 50 Trim on also.

Why does AMS and other vendors like RNR keep saying 20WHP gain from FMIC?
Are they liars?

Well in actuality it's not a "gain" per se. It's more of a recoupment of lost power due to heatsoak. However, after heatsoak the 20whp is there - not so much...
